The Benina Airbase engineer was taken to Benghazi Medical Centre where he was pronounced dead on arrival. His wife and daughter have been taken to an other medical facility where they were receiving treatment.
Outrage sparked by the attack has led to angry protests on Eshrine Street which has been closed at several junctions. [/restrict]
